<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electromagnet automatic connection flange, which provides a configuration to facilitate automatic connection as a pipe joint without using a bolt and a nut. <P>SOLUTION: In the electromagnet automatic connection flange, an electromagnet is excited by use of a solenoid 3 to supply power to a flange 5 provided with the solenoid 3. A switch is provided at a tip of a power line 11 but not shown to perform ON/OFF of power supply to the flange 5, whereby the electromagnet is excited for use. In connection, a pin 1 is fitted to a pin hole 4 of the flange 12. A packing groove 2 is provided at the center of a connection part between both flange surfaces 8 to prevent leak of a flowing matter in a pipe after connection. A packing 10 is installed to the flange 5, and both the flanges are pressed and sealed by the force of the electromagnet. A pipe screw 7 to be connected to the flange 5 and the flange 12 is formed of an insulating material which does not transfer magnetic force from the flanges to the pipe. According to this, pipe connection/separation operation can be performed without manual operation. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT</p> |
